As some of you might remember, TV Envy brought you live remarks during the 2006 Oscars. I had so much fun last time - I thought I would do it again for the 58th Annual Emmy Awards. Unfortunately, since I live on the West Coast, live blogging is not possible. I could cheat and write this while reading the online reports—but I won’t. I will keep my eyes focused on the TV screen before me and make catty remarks as I think of them in Pacific Standard Time.
Although I’m still a bit bitter that neither Lost or Desperate Housewives were nominated this year (apparently due to the recent changes in the nomination process), my annual viewing must go on. If someone can manage to eke out a win for either Entourage, The Office or Scrubs, I may be able to forgive and forget.
Okay—let the time-delayed festivities begin!

Entourage: What About Bob?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, Cable, HBO, Entourage, Features,
In last week’s episode, Turtle was waking up to a big day…this time, it was Drama. Nervous about his first day shooting the pilot, Johnny gets all dressed up. Unfortunately, his outward appearance does not mask the ball of nerves inside. When Turtle jokes to Drama about playing Vince’s ‘brother’ in the Ramones movies, Johnny lashes out at him. Worried that he will suffer a panic attack, the boys suggest ways that he can relax: either take some Xanax or ‘relieve’ himself before filming. Drama decides to go with neither.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Entourage, Announcements, News,
Actor Bruno Kirby died this week in Los Angeles after a battle with leukemia. Widely remembered for his role in the 1991 movie City Slickers, he also played a large role in another Billy Crystal classic, When Harry Met Sally. Sadly enough, Entourage fans just recently saw him in probably one of his last roles. He was the producer who had his Shrek doll stolen from Dom.
Bruno, 57, was only recently diagnosed with the disease. His family has asked that all contributions be directed to the Leukemia and Lymphoma society.

Entourage: I Wanna Be Sedated
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Cable, HBO, Entourage, Features,
Turtle wakes up and preps for a big day. He and his client, rap artist Saigon, are about to seal the deal on a recording contract. On his way into the kitchen, he asks the boys for a second opinion on his outfit. The boys pretend to be clueless about Turtle’s meeting and wonder why he’s gotten all dressed up. Turtle is convinced that his friends have forgotten about the most important day of his life, but they finally give up the whole joke. Eric had his car waxed for the occasion and Drama even prepared him a special Pop Tart. Vinnie preps to give him his regular paycheck, but Turtle says that he may not need his money anymore. To cap the morning off, Drama offers his driving services to Turtle. Eric then sets off to see Ari and tells Vince that he should go with him. It’s been a week since they’ve last heard from him. Vince declines and decides to spend an unemployed day alone at the bookstore.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Cable, HBO, Entourage, Features,

Entourage: The Release
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Cable, HBO, Entourage, Features,
Vince and the boys are heading to the agency. Ari has another ‘surprise’ for Vince and has asked them to stop by. Drama uses the car ride as an opportunity to read aloud the pilot’s script. The audition Lloyd scored for Drama will give him an opportunity to work with Ed Burns. Given Drama’s history with Ed, he believes he will have a good chance of getting the part. Meanwhile, Lloyd has been swamped answering calls all day at the office. Word about Ari’s new building space has leaked and now their lines have been flooded with inquiries. Although Lloyd hate lyings, Ari insists that he continue to deny, deny, deny.

Mark Wahlberg Introduces New HBO Project
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Drama, Cable, HBO, Entourage, News,
Mark Wahlberg has done great things for HBO, by bringing the mega-popular Entourage to the network as an executive producer. Wahlberg’s latest gig as executive producer is for a new half-hour drama titled In Treatment, also for HBO. The series is based on an Israeli series of the same name—a therapist who treats his patients calmly and professionally is actually a complete mess who has to seek therapy for himself. HBO has ordered five episodes, but has yet to commit to putting the series on the air. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the episodes will be presented as one long pilot. The pilot will be directed by Rodrigo Garcia (Six Feet Under, Big Love), so there’s definitely potential.

Entourage: Three’s Company
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, HBO, Entourage, Features,
The boys interrupt Drama from a day parked in front of a video game. Although he still hasn’t heard from Ari, his new supposed agent, he agrees to go out with the crew. Apparently the brothers are 0-for-2 when it comes to Ari calls. Vince hasn’t heard a peep since he told off Alan Gray, the President of Warner Bros.
During their night out, Eric runs into his girlfriend, Sloane. The guys are a bit weirded out that a girl has invaded their group, but Sloane swears their meeting was a mere coincidence. She is actually meeting up with a girlfriend from out of town. When Vince is later approached by a girl from his past, it is clear that the boys night out is now officially over. Ari takes his turn interrupting their evening when he calls Eric with ‘big’ news: Alan has agreed to bump up Vince’s paycheck to $10 million. Unfortunately, Eric and Vince are not impressed with the ‘liar’ and insist on holding out for the requested $20 million. Ari warns them not to get on Alan’s bad side…right before Eric hangs up. Vince is too busy going home with his lady friend to be fazed by Ari’s call, but Johnny is still feeling neglected. Thankfully, Drama’s mood is temporarily lifted when Sloane’s friend, Tori, finally arrives at their table.

The studio would need to delay the Aquaman 2 production for 90 days so they can do both shoots.
